The Haunting made in the late 50's scared me, even watching it on a Sunday afternoon onTV....and many more

This is classic!! the way it was filmed using mirrors is fantastic

Actually just thought of another good one - the original 'Woman in Black' from the 1980's, I watched it as a kid and never fully recovered from it! Saw it the other day and it is still very effective I think.

Woman In Black!! great call

As for The Exorcist my mates brother went to see it when it first came out, he was that disturbed by it he was off work for a month freaked out!

Anyone ever seen Peeping Tom from 1960 ? weird disturbing stuff for that time period

It's all in context.

As a child I was terrified of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, at around 14 John Carpenter's The Thing was the height of horror.

Early 20's I watched Ringu the Japanese horror and it really did scare me.

I saw parts of that on regular TV here years ago and it scared the crap out of me. What was I thinking?
